Pure Choice
All at once, it hits me.
Full Force
Right in the stomach.
Or the mind.
Or the heart.
And it hits me hard.
Months of safety:
Idle
Dull
Safety.
And then this.
How do I protect it?
How do I protect myself?
How do I stop this bleeding agony?
How do I make the decision?
How do I say no?
Or yes?
And how do I know?
Then it hits me.
Or I wish it would
Because right now it’s
Pure Choice.
